It true, he was blacklisted by the studio at the time, but that didnt include behind the scenes work, the famous scene in âNight at the Operaâ were Grouchoâs cabin gets stuffed with more and more people? Buster.

Vic, you have 'way too much time on your hands.
Perhaps you could be more productive at the locomotive shop bench. :lol:

Victor, thank you very much for the Buster Keaton clips. I enjoyed them very much, and it looked like the same loco and cab that wiped him out both times. Nick Jr
Ahhhhh; remember the Buster Keaton flick, called the âRail Roddersâ ?
In it we see him on a speeder rolling by a town, and the shot was made through the widow of the then âWakefield Innâ, at Wakefield Quebec.
The Inn is now known as the âBlack Sheep Innâ and is where a Swedish Steam engine still pulls a tourist train to this day.
The line that Buster was on at that time, only ran up to Maniwaki Quebec, and was not on the trascontinental line, of the CPR, as depicted in the movie.
Just a bit of trivia, for those many Buster Keaton fans
